Awesome photos and not a single backside of a woman or an unsuspecting NYCT employee in either photo.

Well, it has been that way for a long time. Also, it isn't uncommon in the industry. For example, NJT does use their MNR equipment on other lines and use their stuff on the MNR lines. I believe there are other occurances but my memory is failing me right now.

Glad you like the photos.

I keep bugging you guys to come on my boat tours. If we see a train we will stop and allow good photos. We usually get lucky at Marble Hill and Spuyten Duyvil. Of course Amtrak serves itself right up whenever we are stalled because the bridge is closed for rail traffic. Haven't hit the holy grail yet -- CSX on the Oak Point Link!

Tugboat Races this Sunday off Pier 84, Hudson River, 9:30am!

Working Harbor.org

Tugs are diesel locomotives that float!

An ex-Reading RR Tug, Edith Thornton, and probably Cornell (LV) will be there.

The stripe is red, not orange. And I've seen red Bombs on the Hudson Line since at least 2001.

Yeah they are, it's just the stripe and the car names that are different, named for each state's local stuff (ex...Sleepy Hollow for the Hudson, Mark Twain for CT, etc)
